Active students of the Azerbaijan Technical University (AzTU) Student Trade Union Committee (STUC) also participated in the “Students’ Summer Camp” held at the “Tehsil” recreation center on September 8–13. We present an interview with AzTU STUC Chairman Mirmohammed Alakbarli about the camp.

What were the highlights of the “Students’ Summer Camp” for you?

For me, this camp is not just a place to spend a productive summer vacation, but also a platform that creates opportunities for our students to develop their social skills, strengthen their communication with each other, and improve their teamwork skills. Students from different universities build new friendships and collaborations here, and the horizons of young people expand. I think that AzTU students also had an interesting and useful time at the camp.

What was the role of STUC and ETIHI in this event?

I believe that the Azerbaijan Confederation of Trade Unions (ACTU) and the Trade Union of Science and Education Workers (TUSW) attach great importance to the personal development of young people and students. With the support of the mentioned organizations, such camps ensure the social protection of young people, effective organization of leisure time, and professional development. This event once again showed that trade unions are doing real work for the well-being and development of young people.

What can you say about the participation of representatives of other universities in the camp?

A particularly pleasing moment for me is that students from friendly universities and chairmen of TCTUs also actively participated in the camp. Their positive activities and initiatives made a great contribution to strengthening cooperation and friendly relations between young people. Such joint events serve the development of inter-university relations and open up new prospects for our students.

What would you like to say in conclusion?

I am sure that projects such as the “Students' Summer Camp” have a significant impact on both the social and professional development of students. These opportunities created by AHIK and ETIHI strengthen the students' sense of commitment to the trade union movement. With the support of colleagues and the active participation of friendly universities, such events will create the basis for young people to implement successful projects together in the future.
